I have had a Cat 330 (80,000 lb excavator) in the Mississippi river batcher digging out a area. Even though I was sitting on 2 crane mats (4ft x 20ft) every time I would swing around the mats would sink a few inches. I would dig in one area till the counter weight was rubbing the ground; then dig out the mats and move over a few feet and start all over again. Took me about a week of steady digging to clear a area about 1000 ft by 500 ft by 6 ft deep cause as fast as I would dig it out the soft wet sand would run back into the hole.
I guess that was not really stuck cause I was always able to dig myself out but that is the wettest sand I have ever been in.
